Alex Green IV interviews Lisa W. Timmons of the Mediation Tribunal Association, Inc., a nonprofit that is the exclusive provider of an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) process known as case evaluation for the Wayne County Circuit Court in Detroit, Michigan. Case evaluation is an ADR process that, for many years, was unique to Michigan and Michigan still may be one of the few states that offers this ADR process. The discussion covers the conceptualization and evolution of mediation and its relation to case evaluation in Michigan as well as a recent change to the Michigan Court Rules on the use of case evaluation in civil cases.
